Comparison

The best wedding photo app: the comparison

Six providers, the same basic idea, very different terms. Three rows decide whether you end up paying what you expected.

Free, no subscription

Migumento’s guest view on a phone: the wedding album ‘Anna & Michael’ with the photos from all the guests

Where these providers actually differ

The core idea is the same everywhere: scan a QR code, load photos into the shared album, usually with no app. ‘No app needed’ therefore distinguishes nothing. Three other things do:

  • The free plan. With several providers it isn’t a usable plan but a gallery of sample data.
  • The access period, and when it starts counting: from purchase, from the wedding date, or from the tenth photo.
  • Video and original quality, with several providers only from a higher plan.

What Migumento stands for

Originals, not copies

Every item is stored exactly as it left the camera — up to 50 MB per photo and 1 GB per video, nothing shrunk. When you download it, you get back exactly that file.

An album that looks like your celebration

46 palettes in light and dark, 9 fonts, your own cover photo. Plus 23 table card templates, ten cards per A4 sheet, printed from the browser.

Uploads that arrive, even with no signal

If the connection drops, the upload picks up where it stopped — not from the start. The queue survives a restart and, with no signal, waits until there’s reception again.

Guests have nothing to install

Open the link, type a first name, upload — in any phone’s browser, in Deutsch, English, Français, Italiano, Español. No account, no password, no email invite.

Every plan does everything

Live Wall on the projector, 450 photo tasks for 9 occasions, several albums per event, every photo can be moderated — from the free plan up. The plan sets the size of the event, not the features.

After the celebration, the photos are yours

Download everything as a ZIP, or copy it straight into your own Google Photos or Google Drive. After that, you don’t need us any more.

Always included with Migumento

Six providers, six price tags — and with several of them the plan decides which features you get: video, original quality or the live slideshow only further up. With us an event starts at zero and stays there until it grows past 400 MB; every plan does everything, the plan sets the storage and how long it stays online — and with Unlimited your own header sits above the event instead of our name.

  • All guests, all photos and videos — no cap on guests, no cap on photos, no licence per guest.
  • Video is included from the free plan — no surcharge, no higher plan needed.
  • Original quality: up to 50 MB per photo, up to 1 GB per video, nothing gets scaled down.
  • Live Wall as its own link — one tab on the projector, no extra purchase.
  • Multiple albums per event, and you can move items between them afterwards.
  • Moderation: hide any item — reversibly — or delete it.
  • Downloads up to 400 MB are free; once unlocked, you download all the originals.
  • 60 days money back, no subscription — a plan gives more storage and months, Unlimited also your own header, and every plan does everything.
  • Every guest sees the album in their own language — Deutsch, English, Français, Italiano, Español — and the terms and the emails are in the same one.
  • Your file stays your file: we save it unchanged — and whether other people’s downloads leave out location and device data is yours to set for the event.

The providers side by side

Providers in columns, features in rows — on a phone the feature column stays put while you scroll sideways. Amounts are entry prices; promotional prices are marked.

The verdict

Collecting with no purchase, video and original quality already free, a one-off amount with no subscription, a term that only starts when you unlock and can be extended as often as you like — that’s our column.

When another provider is the better fit

  • An album that stays without an extension: according to the provider, Joy stores the photos with no time limit, as part of the free wedding website — though your guests need the Joy app to upload.
  • No purchase at all, even for a large celebration: WedShoots is completely free, with no paid packages — in return, guests download the WedShoots app and join with an access code.
  • Migumento speaks Deutsch, English, Français, Italiano, Español — each of them in full, right down to the terms and the privacy policy. For guests whose language is not among them: GuestPix names nine languages, Wedbox 18 (not listed).

Migumento is free until the event grows past 400 MB

The free plan is not a trial run: all guests, all photos, all videos, the Live Wall — and up to 400 MB of event size you download the originals too, for 6 months. For bigger celebrations there are one-off plans with 12 or 24 months from the unlock. No subscription.

Common questions

What does Migumento cost in comparison?

Collecting is free. Unlocking is a one-off payment from $23 — no subscription, no per-guest licence, no surcharge for video.

Can we switch from another provider?

Yes: download there, upload again here. There’s no automatic transfer.

Do our guests need an app or an account?

Not with Migumento: opening the link is enough, plus a first name on the first upload. For the others it’s in the table.

How up to date is the table?

The line under the table names the date it was checked. Prices and packages change quickly — write to us at info@migumento.com if something is no longer right.
